Moon Glow Freeform Scarf

Take the Moon with you all day/night with this piece - the perfect garment for a Spring evening or any Autumn day.


I’ve knitted this scarf in a soft as a feather yarn by Sirdar’s, in tones of snow white and silver.

I’ve used different kinds of stitches and needles to make the scarf’s form irregular; some parts are stretchable while others are tighter and softer. 

The scarf ends in a sharp form with the added acessory of a wire-crocheted quarter Moon (waxing or wanning according to your wishes) and adorned with acrylic beads in silver tone.

Measurements:
- length 120 cm (47”)
- width: approx. 14 cm (5,5 ”) (stretchable)
- moon acessory: 8 cm (3”)

Yarn composition - 86 % Polyamid, 14% Polyester

Dramatic Domino Brooch

This piece features a combination of contemporary approaches and traditional fashion.

I’ve crocheted two layers with black wire and embroidered them with small jet czech glass beads and white seed beads.

I’ve attached a gorgeous German-designed button made of white seed beads and a few stone beads in the centre.


A brooch needle measuring 3,5 cm ( 1,38”) was very well sewed to it for a perfectly secure fastening.

Measurements : 8,5cm ( 3,35”) x 8cm ( 3,15”)

It looks gorgeous in various colour schemes, as you can see in the photos.
